Seasonal skils on web store - does it increase sales?

new years, president's day, independence, halloween, etc

Some web stores seem to skin their web store differently based on the time of the year. Does this help increase sales?

I always add a little seasonal flavor to my site, especially during Christmas and new years.

It seems to help. I believe it shows your clients that your website is up-to-date, and it is not one of those dead websites.

Good point Raymond. I would add that a little creativity goes a long way. Too staid/plain or too over-the-top becomes a turn-off; there is a happy medium to seek if you do this.

I would think it would depend on the product lines more than anything.

If you sell bulk steel, pretty hard to get seasonally excited about it :D

I was actually on a site the other day buying a few things. I noticed they had some Easter items and since I needed them, I bought them there. It saved me a trip to the store
